Section 1: GENERAL INFORMATION
Power Unit
The ICE power unit is powered by a Caterpillar Tier 3 diesel engine and is mounted on a tubular sub-base that
serves as a fuel tank. The power unit and vibrator are operated from the control panel or remote control pen-
dant. Hydraulic oil is stored in the reservoir. A heat exchanger is mounted in front of the engine for engine
cooling, hydraulic oil cooling, and turbocharger after-cooling. All components are contained in a sheet metal en-
closure with lockable doors and a central lifting point.
Vibrator Driver/Extractor
The Vibratory Driver/Extractor consists of three major components - the gear case, the vibration suppressor, and
the hydraulic clamp. The gear case contains eccentric weights that rotate in a vertical plane to create vibration.
Hydraulic motors drive the eccentric weights. Additionally, the ICE ZR series of vibrators have an actuator that
can vary the eccentric moment from zero to maximum. This controlled variable eccentric moment allows for
gentle starts and stops. The vibration suppressor contains rubber elastomers to isolate the vibration from the
crane line. The hydraulic clamp attaches the vibrator to the pile.
